Legends have been circulating around “Club 27” for years. The followers of this theory claim that it is a curse that lurks over young and talented musicians. Far fewer people believe that it is not fate, but a mere coincidence, in which many see a conspiracy in vain.
“Club 27” has been intriguing for years. Conspiracy theorists are trying to explain the circumstances of the musicians’ deaths
The first mentions of “Club 27” appeared in the late 1960s. It was then that people realized about an unusual coincidence connecting many outstanding young musicians. It turned out that artists such as Brian Jones and Jim Morrison died between 1969 and 1971. They all had one thing in common – at the time of their death they were only 27 years old. And these are just a few from quite a long list. Although the topic aroused considerable controversy in the media, speculation ceased for some time. The mysterious case was returned only when the world was informed about the death of the singer and guitarist of the band Nirvana, . “He’s gone and joined that stupid club.” I told him not to join him – in “The Daily World” the star’s mother. In addition to the artists listed above, the list also includes: Robert Johnson, Alan Wilson, Jacob Miller, Sean Patrick McCabe, Amy Winehouse and Fredo Santana.
Legends and myths about “Klub 27”. Why did artists die so young?
There is no denying that over the years, “Klub 27” has grown into many legends and myths, and after the death of each artist who “joined” this group, there were further speculations. There are a lot of theories to explain why so many musicians died at the peak of their popularity. Many pointed out that the artists on the list are primarily rock performers. This music genre is often considered “devil’s music”, which would mean that death was supposed to be a punishment for allying with evil. On the other hand, others claimed that the creators made a pact with the devil in exchange for fame and popularity, and they were to repay the debt at the age of 27.
It should be noted, however, that many of the artists who died at the age of 27 were people who led a rather reckless and revelry lifestyle. They did not shy away from alcohol-fuelled parties. Many were also addicted to drugs or strong drugs. They did not hide that they live in the moment and do not think about the future. Numerous trips on concert tours were conducive to deepening addictions. The circumstances of the death of the greatest music legends did not raise any doubts. In most cases, the cause of death was drug overdose, accidents or chronic diseases.
